Located right in the heart of the City of Orange, this establishment lives up to its name by offering an immense and varied menu that goes far beyond a simple deli counter. It is a local culinary legend, celebrated not just for its generous portions—often described by customers as "the size of my forearm" and "enough for both me and my spouse"—but for its commitment to classic, hearty comfort food and local specialties.
This is not your average, quick-service chain. Sandwiches Unlimited is a cozy, historic spot with a trendy, casual atmosphere that draws a crowd of college students, locals, and families alike. The core of its appeal is simple: incredible value and food that is packed with flavor and meat. Customers consistently note that they get significantly more for their money here than at typical fast-food places, with one reviewer highlighting that a single sub, rich with meat, provided two days' worth of meals for a price comparable to a standard fast-food combo.
The menu is a comprehensive list of deli and sandwich shop favorites, categorized into Cold Sandwiches, Hot Sandwiches, and a selection of Hot Homemade Special Selections and Platters. This variety ensures that whether you are looking for a simple Turkey and Cheese on rye, or a signature New Jersey-style Italian Hot Dog, Sandwiches Unlimited has perfected the recipe. The dedication to serving a local specialty, alongside crowd favorites like the Italian Cheeseburger, solidifies its status as an essential Essex County dining experience.

The restaurant is popular for lunch and dinner, and given the consistent high traffic and the fact that there is "usually a wait," calling in your order is often recommended for the quickest service, especially during peak meal times.

Second, for a taste of North Jersey heritage, the Italian Hot Dog is a regional specialty that is perfectly executed. Finally, the Italian Cheeseburger is a crowd favorite, blending the classic sandwich concept with a hearty, cheesy burger twist that customers call "amazing."

★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1Great food! Had a turkey & cheese sandwich that was enough for both me and my spouse. Also had the Italian cheeseburger and it was amazing. The teas in the fridge was great too. My grandparents had an Italian hot dog and a tuna fish sandwich as long as my arm, both were great. Will definitely be back!
October 23 · Keana BI stopped in while traveling. I just googled it so I thought I would give it a shot. The gentleman who made my sandwich was very helpful because usually when I go to a new place, I basically asked them what they’re famous for. He basically said everything the restaurant size was decent enough to have sitting, but they had a lot of takeout traffic. The sandwich was about the size of my forearm. It took me two days to eat it and it was wonderful every single time The last time I actually put it into an air fryer. It was great you go to McDonald’s you can spend $15 for a big Mac fries and a Coke. I spent $16 for a sub that had so much meat on it. I literally couldn’t eat at all. I would definitely recommend the place can’t say it’s the most extravagant fancy place but if you want a great sandwich for very reasonable price with the staff is very helpful and friendly. I will go.
March 27 · Jeff PettitI've been to this place several times after moving to East Orange. Going straight into it, the sandwiches are delicious. If you know what you want, you will be pleased without a doubt. I just finished my sandwich and I'm ready for more! I wish them well!
June 06 · Bonifacio VelasquezThe problem that I have is they want us to buy Black and I really enjoy sandwiches unlimited but we need to really be more professional in this demographic on your Google website. I have the screenshot. It says that you guys are open at 9 AM. I drove here came there at 9 AM. The doors were open and I walked in and you guys told me oh we’re not open right now on your Google site. It says that you open at 9 AM. It says that you’re open instead of rectifying the situation. She’s like oh we just don’t open till nine. Is anyone going to fix it on the Google site as Black people we need to do better and this is why as a black woman sometimes I don’t wanna patronize black businesses. There was nothing you did to rectify the situation. Nothing you guys were wrong. You should’ve made my sandwich or you should’ve let me order my sandwich instead you said there’s nothing that we can do about it. That is not how you run a business what you should’ve said is I am so sorry for that inconvenience. I will absolutely look into this immediately because I wouldn’t want this to happen again.
July 01 · Breann NdiayeOnce you try this place, you won’t want a sandwich anywhere else. My husband works in the area and has it for lunch often and got me hooked now. Italian cheeseburger is my favorite but everything is good. The salads are amazing , chopped up and fresh. The owner is a wonderful man and the employees are always helpful and happy. Love this place.
